Effects of increasing fitness through exercise training on language comprehension in monolingual and bilingual older adults: a randomized controlled trial.

Exercise training has been proposed to counteract age-related cognitive decline through improvements in cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF hypothesis). Research has focused on cognitive domains like attention and processing speed, and one cross-sectional study reported a positive relationship between CRF and language production in older adults. In a randomized controlled trial, we investigated whether these benefits could extend to language comprehension in healthy older adults, and whether bilinguals, for whom language processing is more costly, would exhibit greater benefits than monolinguals.

Improving Diagnostic Strategies for Pediatric Anxiety Disorders: Advice for the Clinician.
